Fifth Harmony’s Lauren Jauregui Shares “Punk as F–k” Message About Body Image
Lauren Jauregui doesn’t need to live up to societal expectations.
In fact, the Fifth Harmony singer is more than happy in the skin she’s in.
“Honestly, I feel like it’s punk as f–k to not be a twig right now, and that’s kind of where I’m at,” she told E! News’ Keltie Knight on the carpet at the 2026 MTV VMAs. “I am a woman. I fluctuate like all women do. I struggle with PCOS [polycystic ovary syndrome] as well, which not a lot of people like to talk about.”
She added, “I think I’m beautiful. And I think that when you’re centered on something bigger than people’s opinion of you and like external validation, I really feel like my aura, my light comes from within. Like I’m still doing my thing, and I’m still a star.”
It also helps that the 30-year-old has long learned to live with—and rise above—the constant scrutiny that a life in the spotlight can bring.
